Chapter 200: Underworld Soldiers and Underworld Generals

This Underworld Soldier wore a set of Gray Battle Armor and held a broken bone spear; its face was exposed by its helmet, looking extremely ferocious with cracked, pitch-black skin, and its entire body exuded a black aura that seemed capable of corroding all things.

"A Saint Realm Underworld Soldier!"

Such an Underworld Soldier is very powerful, its strength likely far exceeding that of an ordinary Saint Realm expert, yet such Underworld Soldiers are very common in the Mingdu Mountain Ruins.

"Aurora Art!"

The Great Divine Ability Aurora Art at the fifth-level Consummation Realm erupted, piercing through the Underworld Soldier's body in a single strike; furthermore, the Light Element Great Divine Ability countered the Underworld Soldier, and this strike directly crippled it.

Immediately following.

Ye Tian utilized the Void Escape Dao Body's ability to manipulate space, compressing the space around the Underworld Soldier bit by bit.

This Underworld Soldier struggled desperately to resist, but in the end, it was crushed to pieces.

"With my current strength, killing a Saint Realm expert is like killing a dog!"

Ye Tian thought to himself.

But he would not be careless; after all, this is the Mingdu Mountain Ruins, and Saint Realm Underworld Soldiers are merely the weakest of the dangers here.

After killing the Saint Realm Underworld Soldier, Ye Tian took the broken armor, helmet, and bone spear from its body, "These weapons have endured countless years without decaying; even with the effects of the ruins, their material itself is extraordinary!"

Ye Tian swallowed all these items.

"Heavenly Peng Devour!"

Ye Tian activated this Supreme Great Divine Ability to refine these items.

Heavenly Peng Devour can devour all things, so naturally, it can devour these weapon materials.

After all, these items were somewhat broken and not suitable as his own weapons, so it was better to refine them to increase the strength of his Tianpeng Dao Body.

The improvement of the Tianpeng Dao Body consumes too many resources and treasures; he has swallowed many treasures, yet has not seen much growth.

Therefore, he swallows whatever suitable things he finds.

"Huh, the effect is not bad!"

After Ye Tian finished refining, he thought to himself.

Immediately, one of his souls continued to activate Heavenly Peng Devour to refine, without affecting his actions.

"Let's go look elsewhere!"

Ye Tian muttered.

Along the way, he did not see anything good, which was not strange; after all, many Heavenly King Realm experts had entered this place, and some obviously good things had naturally been scavenged away long ago, leaving behind only things that were not easy to obtain.

Soon.

Another Underworld Soldier appeared, its strength even more formidable than the previous one, and the weapons on its body were more intact.

However, encountering Ye Tian, this Underworld Soldier's strength was not worth mentioning.

"Kill!"

This time, Ye Tian activated the power of his Tianpeng Dao Body, not even using Sword Intent Manifestation; relying solely on the powerful physical strength of his Dao Body, he forcibly blasted this Underworld Soldier to death.

It is no exaggeration to say that his current physical strength has already surpassed that of an average Small Saint Realm expert.

After killing this Underworld Soldier, Ye Tian used Heavenly Peng Devour to refine the materials on its body.

Gradually, Ye Tian began to penetrate deeper into the Mingdu Mountain Ruins; the deeper he went, the higher the possibility of encountering danger.

Not long after, Ye Tian discovered that the surrounding air had become viscous, and the spatial pressure had become intense.

"This is entering the inner circle of the Mingdu Mountain Ruins!"

Ye Tian thought to himself.

King Xia had told him that once the space was felt to be viscous, there was a high probability of having entered the inner circle of the Mingdu Mountain Ruins.

Only the inner circle of the Mingdu Mountain Ruins can be considered truly entering the Mingdu Mountain Ruins; the dangers of the outer circle are not high for experts like him, but there are no good things there either, as Heavenly King Realm experts who have cultivated a Dao Body can likely survive in the outer circle of the Mingdu Mountain Ruins, and only in particularly unlucky situations would they possibly die.

But it is precisely because the danger in the outer circle is very low that the treasures have been scavenged clean.

The inner circle is different; the danger here upgrades by a level, and even Heavenly King Realm experts who have cultivated a Dao Body could possibly fall here.

"Unable to escape into the Space Interlayer!"

Ye Tian frowned.

Clearly, this Mingdu Mountain Ruins is very unfriendly to Space Talent Ability users!

Even with his attainments in space, he could not escape into the Space Interlayer, and others would be even less capable; once they encounter danger, they can only choose to fight head-on.

Not long after.

Ye Tian encountered one of the dangers of the inner circle of the Mingdu Mountain Ruins—an Underworld General!

Boom!!!!!

A giant figure holding a large hammer emerged; the opponent's aura was much stronger than that of an Underworld Soldier, and the armor on its body was of a higher grade.

This was an Underworld General, its strength between the Small Saint Realm and the Great Saint Realm, and its body possessed extremely high defense.

Back then, when King Xia was still in the Heavenly King Realm, he had come here and encountered an Underworld General, and he was almost killed.

Of course.

Ye Tian's strength far exceeds that of the King Xia of the past, so he naturally would not fear encountering this Underworld General.

"Fight!"

Ye Tian dared not hide his strength; the strength of such an Underworld General is extremely formidable, and he must go all out.

Boom!!!!!

Ye Tian's Reincarnation Dao Body, Tianpeng Dao Body, and Void Escape Dao Body—these three great Dao Bodies were all activated, and he even unleashed the Boundary Scale Dao Technique; the blessing of the Three Great Dao Diagrams of the Boundary Scale Dao Technique raised his defense to an unimaginable level.

Swish!

Ye Tian charged toward this Underworld General and began to battle it.

This Underworld General's speed was too fast; one hammer strike came, far exceeding the reaction speed of the Heavenly King Realm, and even Lie Yan of the Yang Clan could not compare to this Underworld General in terms of speed.

"As expected of an expert from the Primordial Era, existing as an Underworld General while still possessing such terrifying speed!"

Ye Tian sighed inwardly.

He was not afraid of the opponent's speed, because speed was useless against him.

"Time Stagnation!"

Ye Tian unleashed a time-type Dao Technique.

There was no one else here, so he could fully unleash his power without fear of the Underworld General revealing his strength; what did he have to worry about?

Hum!

Under the influence of Time Stagnation, the Underworld General's reaction slowed down for a moment.

"Sword Intent Manifestation, slash!"

Puchi!

The Underworld General's neck was slashed open by Ye Tian, but it was not severed, showing just how monstrous its defense was.

Clang, clang, clang!!!!

Ye Tian and the Underworld General fought incessantly, using Time Stagnation from time to time to affect its movements before launching attacks.

Finally, the Underworld General's neck was severed by Ye Tian, and its head fell off.

However.

The Underworld General did not die and continued to strike with a hammer.

At this moment, Ye Tian had just used Time Stagnation and could not dodge in time, so he directly used defensive means such as the Three Great Dao Bodies, Boundary Scale Dao Technique, Great Five Elements Wheel Divine Ability, and Golden Scale Art Divine Ability to withstand it.

Boom!!!

Ye Tian was sent flying, but only a few Divine Abilities were broken and one layer of the Boundary Scale Dao Technique was shattered; he was otherwise unharmed.

"My defense is indeed terrifying; I can even withstand a full-force blow from something only second to the God Realm!"

Ye Tian thought to himself.

Subsequently.

Ye Tian severed the Underworld General's limbs and cut its body into several pieces, only then completely killing it.

"I must be careful in the future; for such dead things, sometimes losing a head or having a heart shattered might only be minor injuries!" Ye Tian thought.

After killing the Underworld General, Ye Tian also devoured the weapon materials on its body, using Heavenly Peng Devour to refine them, which helped improve his Tianpeng Dao Body.

However.

While sorting through the items on the opponent, he saw a mysterious metal Token that seemed somewhat extraordinary, so he kept it and did not devour it as material.
